favored holding a session on Sunday, went

COURT HOUSE CONTRACT.
It Is Let to Geo. Barrett, of Wa
Keeney.

The board of county commissioners
met on Thursday to canvass the bids for
the construction of the court house.
Yesterday the contract was awarded
to our fellow townsman, Geo. Barrett.
His Trego- county hard-stone bid was &C
cepted. The World congratulates Mr..
Barrett on his receiving this contract. It
congratulates the commissioners on their
showing the native good sense to declare
in favor of having the court house built
of stone which can be obtained in this
county. Many poor settlers will long
thank them for this decision, and our bus
mess men have reason to join in the
thanking.
On being opened, the bids showed up
as follows:
Bid Of Geo. Barrett, Trego county hard
stone, $26,994.
Bid of Geo. Barrett, Manhattan stone,
$26, 1873
Bid of Hulse & Moses, Manhattan
stone, S2S,475.
Bid Of S: J. Collins, Trego county
stone, S3O.S72.
Bid of G. w. Atkinson & Son, Trego
county stone. $28,500.
Work on the excavation will be begun
as soon as possible. Stone will be quar-
ried and hauled this fall and winter, but
no masonry will be touched before
spring.

was intending to be at the fair last week
but was detained at home by sad acct
dent. His Oldest son, ten years of age
while out after the cattle two weeks age
last Wednesday, was bitten by a strange
dog. The boys right hand was lacerated
frightfully, and his left shoulder and arm
were bitten to the bones. The first i'm.
pulse was to believe the dog was mad
Mr.. Cross fred at the dog with revolver
but missed it. He then mounted horse,
and followed the animal toward Ellis.
Mr.. Cross did not go all the way to Ellis,
because Of the coming Of nightfall. He
afterwards heard of the dog in Ellis.
There it leaped into yard, and made an
unsuccessful attempt to bite Mrs. Chrys-
Ter. This is the last which has been
heard of the dog. It is to be hoped once
for always that the dog was not mad, but
it is to be regretted that it escaped death.
